The correct name has been stated on the particulars of claim.[2]Accordingly, the judgment in this case is based upon service which did not occur and that judgment must be revoked and the claim must be served upon the correct respondent, namely Epsom Lodge Care Homes Ltd which has the same registered office as the address already used for service of the Respondent.[3]Consequently, the name of the respondent is substituted to be Epsom Lodge Care Homes Ltd and the papers will be re-served and the respondent will have an opportunity to enter a response to the claim if so advised.
